I did the same trip on the Gornoslaska in the same summer as Chris. I encountered less rough weather in the Atlantic but never made Cleveland as the Gornoslaska dropped her rudder at Valleyfield. I was transferred by road to the Iryda at Sorel but then only got as far as Oshawa as the Iryda was ordered back to pick up the disabled Gornoslaska's cargo at Valleyfield. So though I never made Cleveland, let alone Duluth which was my final destination, I did get two passages through the seaway on two different ships. These photographs are great; Chris is an excellent photographer. Brought back fantastic memories.
